Taken is kind of cool. Play with words and puns a little. I thought Thelonious Punk was really cool until I found out some punk band already thought of it. Tron Javolta is probably the best pun name ever. Gnarles Barkley. Thing is, if your an artist you should be able to think of your own name on your own. Be an artist. Have a sense of creativity :/

Damn, you're right on that one. Alright. Try it out. Just giving you a heads up though: the band/artist name affects the way in which people view you and your body of work. Put a little thought into it and come out with something that means something to you. If your going to pick the name of a song for your name make sure the name is PERFECT for what you do. Dunno. Good luck dude.

Lets see, Electricity is my favorite superpower, so I thought of some words that represented it such as Plasma,Electric, Photon, Static etc. Eventually I chose static because it has a better ring to it like in Static Shock

I got the blu by my favorite color and took out the E because it made it more memorably and more original than using the actual spelling

I would suggest making a list of words that sound interesting to you and or define your certain interests and then lay around with some just to help narrow it down.

For me:
LichLord - A Lich is an Awesome concept, powerful undead sorcerer who are so powerful that while their body rots their soul and magic remain undead and anchored to Earth. Make it a Lord of Liches and well there you go! It fits as a name for Metal and Electro Industrial fairly well and probably a few other genres which sound nasty and/or dystopian.

Angelstomp - This one is pretty Diablo-Influenced. Never really liked anything which spawned out of the High Heavens that much, keep imagining that if I ever get an album cover done it would probably be of Imperius getting beheaded. Plus it sounds like a Metal band name which is a plus!

Basically, think of something you like, think of the typical naming structure for the genre you make your tracks in and there you go!

To be perfectly fair though... Buranovskiye Babushki not only 1) got away with having old people's names, but also 2) made hilarious folk music and 3) had a miniature granny which was just so adorable. <3
